The Gansenji Temple is a Buddhist temple located south of Sakai in Izumi Settsu, Japan.
History
In the 1580s, the temple served as a hideout for a faction of the Ikkō-ikki led by Kyonyo. There, Kyonyo led an effort to continue his resistance against Oda Nobunaga, for which he was disowned by his father Kennyo. In 1582, when one of Nobunaga's samurai Wada Koretake led an attack on the temple, Kyonyo sent word throughout Settsu for assistance, which was indirectly answered by the Igan kunoichi Fujibayashi Naoe.[1]
Naoe arrived at the temple, finding it ransacked due to battle and assisted the sōhei against Koretake's men. After dispatching the attacks, Naoe met with Kyonyo and explained her purpose for seeking him out. After being joined by Yaya, one of Kyonyo's associates from Honganji, Naoe was directed to recruit an ally named Mitsumune as well as to locate Koretake's Chief Executioner in hopes of tracking down Koretake's whereabouts.[1] At some point, Naoe returned to the temple and made prayers at its smaller shrines within the complex.[2]
